I just copied the original and made it longer. There's no way to customise it at all other than number of answers.

This is just a custom quiz type which is only found in the original featured quiz. This functionality is only possible using this custom quiz type, and it uses â prebuilt list, which means the functionality only works (currently) with the short term memory word list embedded into the site's code.

I have considered adding the functionality separately, but haven't done so yet.

Wow great quiz. It tested the capacity of my memory palace. "Am I going to have enough rooms?" Ha! I guessed one word out of order, otherwise fine.

I did the same. I'd never tried the "memory palace" approach until now, but figured I'd give it a spin for this, and it worked (almost) perfectly.

I got 24 out of 25, in order, and I only missed the one because when memorizing them, I misread "crown" as "clown."

The goulash has a banana-feel, so its world-record status is false. In a room made of sorbet, a Singapore shepherd showed his talent of making the spiders exodus. Einstein was a fairy who wore an awesome, soulful polo shirt. Baseball players wear both coats and jackets to sit down to cook hippos with onion seasoning on their chests. Cooking a dish is just chemistry, after all.

This is kind of crazy... I got 24/25. The only one I missed was pizza. Then I saw in the stats that pizza was the least guessed answer out of that group of words. Seems like it would be one of the easier words to remember. Why are so many of us forgetting pizza?

Probably because when the person tries memorizing the words, they see pizza and is like "Ahhh, that's such a common word, that'll be easy to remember." So they spend less time trying to "remember" it. And then forget
